Since
1983 NCERT has kept the no. of qualified students in NTSE to 1000 and amount to
Rs 500. The financial incentive given to NTSE scholar is very low, NCERT needs
to seriously look in to this and review this. In the last 30 years Salaries of
govt. Employees have been increased 10 times where as the pay and perks of MPs
& MLAs have been increased 15 times. It is high time even the NTSE scholars
should get their legitimate dues.
In
the Indian context any increase in Salaries, perks is outcome of collective
bargain always. If we don’t put the demand the same scholarship will continue
for another 20 years. It is time to raise the demand through letter, e mails, and
social media.
There
are more than 4 lacs students participated in NTSE last year which might be
manifold that of 1983 takers. NCERT should also increase the nos of
scholarship to 3000 from the present 1000.
